A Paperbacked German Special Poster (measures 27 1/2" x 39" [70 x 99 cm]) (Learn More)

Margaritten Tag Zu Dresen (literally translates to "Daisies Day in Dresden "), the 1911 German poster promoting a charity festival which took place on May 13th in Dresden, Germany. Note that this poster features Werner Hahmann artwork of a wreath of daisies and a child catching falling golden coins. Blumentag (Flower Day) took place in various German cities between 1910 and the beginning of the First World War. On these days, a certain flower was chosen and artificial flowers were distributed for charitable purposes in return for monetary donations. The streets were decorated with the appropriate flowers and food and drink were sold.
Artist: Werner Hahmann
Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this German poster! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards.

Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward), and it will likely need to be sent in a 6" tube, because rolling it more tightly might damage the poster.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster was tri-folded only. It had some creases and tears on the folds, and around the edges, with a few creases and tears in non-fold areas. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. Someone had the poster backed onto paper with no excess, and it appears it was done solely for conservation purposes, because very little, if any, restoration was done. But backing the poster has diminished how noticeable the above defects are, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
